168: Streets of Fire Engulf the Monuments Men on a Mission

Listeners, Double Edged Double Bill is on a mission. That mission? To do an episode all about Men on a Mission movies in honor of The Suicide Squad coming out! Previously, James Gunn has said his biggest influences on the new DC film are the Men on a Mission films of old. So, Adam and Thomas are looking back at two very different takes on the genre! First, George Clooney assembles a massive cast for an underwhelming journey in The Monuments Men! Then, Walter Hill gives us the exciting rock & roll fable Streets Of Fire! Together, our duo answers the crucial questions. What is up with George Clooney's directorial career? Is Willem Dafoe the original anime villain? Which two films will they choose for next week's episode on musician movies? Well, grab your sledgehammer and smash straight into the work of art that is this episode to find out!   Follow the show on Twitter @DEDBpod & Facebook as well as Adam and Thomas on Twitter! Send feedback to [email protected]!
